Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

After a long hiatus, the Seibertron.com toy galleries are back in action to coincide with tonight's airing of Transformers Prime Season 3! The first batch of today's gallery additions is Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Deluxe Wave 1. In this wave we have new renditions of Bumblebee, Wheeljack, and Soundwave with Ravage. Each figure features a plethora of spikes and bestial features, along with new armaments. Lastly, the wave is rounded out by the first deluxe Predacon, Lazerback. Check out the figures by clicking the links or pictures below!

I'd enjoy these a lot better if Lazerback hadn't been mis-transformed. Otherwise, great work.

Is that a bit of red sharpie action going on with Smokescreen's head? I don't seem to remember that in any previews or reviews but then again I've been looking at Beast Hunters with a lot of scepticism.

I still don't like how the Preds all have the same kind of "quadrupedal Western dragon stands up to become bipedal Western dragons" thing going, but they're kinda growing on me, particularly Laserback/Vertebreak and Ripclaw.

Sigh... no. I can't do it.The more I look at this line, the uglier it gets. Sorry - this line is a pass, as much as the 'Crapper-Core Com-crappers' was. The only possible exception will be Shockwave, and that only because I can take his 'dragon armor' and throw it in the garbage.

What did I mistransform with Lazerback? I must've missed something in his instructions when I transformed him if I've got him wrong in the gallery.

The yellow part with the "feathers" or "ears" or whatever. They're supposed to angle backward. You have them over is head. It's step 12 in the instructions from beast to robot conversion.

The Transformers Prime Beast Hunters galleries keeping blazing ahead faster than Smokescreen. This time we move away from the deluxe figures into the more massive voyager class figures. These figures include Shockwave, Optimus Prime and Predaking.

Bite your TONGUE, good sir! Obviously you haven't had a true experience with the PCC line!

As for the galleries, great as always!

(Except for that thing that I'm not going to mention because it was just discussed. It's like the return of double-hinged-backwards-armed Knock Out! )

Oh yes. Ruined Forever.

Seriously. I just got Lazerback yesterday and he's pretty neat for what he is, but I think he looks better with those ear things flipped up like that. It makes me think of that dinosaur from Jurassic Park with the frill that popped out before it would spit venomous saliva at someone. The Predacons all do look more or less the same to me, but having Predaking, Ripclaw and now Lazerback standing together on one shelf makes them look pretty good as a group.

Motto:"Well, when I see five weirdos dressed in togas, stabbing a man in the middle of the park in full view of a hundred people, I shoot the bastards! That's MY policy!"

Weapon: Photon Blaster

Ryan, did you use red sharpie on Smokecreen's head or is that some model paint? Makes the figure look 100 times better. Especially after watching last night's episode and noticing how much red is on his head. Galleries look great! Glad they are back.

"One of them even took the time to smear, “Fans are TeH SUCK!!!" in poop all over my windshield!"

I've ended up liking Ripclaw a lot more than I thought I would have. It's a very attractive looking figure even though it doesn't do very much. In general I find the stand up to transform motif incredibly lame, but for some reason Ripclaw is ok with me.

You're right. Clearly, I am quitting Seibertron over the mis-transformation of Lazerback because this site is ruined forever. I am required by law to refrain from even the slightest irritation about a mis-transformation. If you have this irritation and want to see if the photographer is aware of this mis-transformation, you shall stuff a sock in your mouth and shut up or the police will come and arrest you. You shall not offer any criticism whatsoever, or else you will be accused of "RUINED FOREVER" and beaten down with the police's fabulous batons. I wasn't aware of the new law. Thank you, powerful and almighty Dagon. You've shown me the way.
